1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Long non-coding RNAs, such as homeobox A cluster antisense RNA2 (HOXA-AS2) are understood to be involved in tumor growth and development of numerous cancers. However, the role of HOXA-AS2 in the progression of human epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains unclear. In the present study, the expression of HOXA-AS2 was found to be upregulated in EOC tissues compared with noncancerous tissues, and to be strongly correlated to an advanced Federation International of Gynecology and Obstetrics grade and poor prognosis. Knockdown of HOXA-AS2 in the EOC cells inhibited cell proliferation, invasion and migration, as well as inducing cell apoptosis. The ENCORI database was used to screen the microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) that bound to HOXA-AS2, and one was tested using RNA pull-down and luciferase reporter assays. It was demonstrated that HOXA-AS2 functioned through the competing endogenous RNA mechanism to regulate miR-372. It was also demonstrated that the downregulation of miR-372 reversed the inhibitory effects of the knockdown of HOXA-AS2 in EOC cells. These results indicated that HOXA-AS2 promoted EOC progression by regulating the miR-372, which suggests that HOXA-AS2 may be a therapy target for EOC.
